Highlights
- 74VV+4X Honolulu - Tailored for more experienced divers, our deep and shallow dive will take you to the some of the best sites off the coast of Oahu. We usually start with a 100-foot plunge to a shipwreck. Because the wrecks are significantly further from shore, we often see more pelagic fish, turtles, and sharks. The second dive is usually a reef around 40-60’ deep depending on where we feel like going.
With an experienced enough group, we’re able to guide you to more adventurous areas of the underwater world. These are fun dives for certified divers, we have the freedom to choose the best sites that match what you want to go see.

Additional Information
Our Wreck Dives offered daily are best suited for seasoned divers, as we explore deeper wrecks and reefs in the dawn. Typically, our expedition includes diving into one profound shipwreck (with a maximum depth of around 100 feet/30 meters) followed by a stop at one of our magnificent coral reefs for our second diver (at 40-60 feet/12-18 meters). The diving plan may vary based on the conditions, currents, and preferences of your group, allowing us the possibility to schedule a double wreck dive on occasions. Given the perfect conditions, we are capable of diving into three distinct wrecks in a single two-dive journey!

Great Experience! Flexible team! - My wife and I booked 8 dives with Andrew and his team. They were all very friendly and knowledgeable. We book 4 dives per day but during the second day, my wife didn't feel well and Andrew was willing for us to come back another day to finish our dives. Great experience, saw many different animals during our dives.

Highly Recommended! - These guys are great! Hands down the best diving company in Oahu. I have dove with a couple of others, and Hawaiian Diving Adventures are not only knowledgeable and friendly but also have a strong focus on safety. I completed my Advanced Adventurer Certification with them (i.e., three 2-tank dives), and every time I had a great experience. They have their own boat with small groups. They also had enough instructors/dive masters on the boat to make even the least experienced divers feel safe). I can compare this experience with completing my Nitrox Certification with another provider in Oahu, and it’s night and day in terms of customer service, professionalism and safety. Highly recommended! Thanks Evan, Bailey and Andrew for a great time!

2 tank reef wreck dive - My wife and I recently dove with this charter. Great dive experience with a lot of life to see! Dana and crew were very accommodating and are experts in what they do. Would definitely dive here again and recommend to others!

Simply the best (local perspective) - Absolutely the best on the island. I have dived with 3-4 other shops on Oahu and this crew knows what they are doing. The equipment is top notch, the attention is personal and the groups are small.
First trip with them was the afternoon 2 reef dives. I enjoy these types of dives as they are typically longer, go at a slower pace which suits me as an amateur photographer. While students and beginners are frequently on the afternoons, that's not a problem for me. Everyone has to learn at some point, and I'm not perfect. Beautiful coral gardens, abundance of fish, turtles, a white tip shark and even endemic green lionfish and a Whitley's (!!!) boxfish.
Second trip, owner suggested I take the morning wreck and reef. So glad I did. Stellar diving, good vis, and safe wreck swim throughs with frogfish and turtles. Again, the reef was like above, this time with a saddleback butterflyfish, more lionfish, turtles and nudis.
Please enjoy their aloha hospitality and a hui hou!
PS as an older woman, diving single, I was treated wonderfully.

Loved it! - Had a great experience and an awesome dive! My friend and I have been with them for three dives now and we highly recommend. Caleb does a great job keeping you safe while also showing you great dive spots on Oahu. Saw lots of sea life and had so much fun!

Felt like a private boat charter - My teen boys went out with Caleb and Captain Grace right before Christmas 2020. We had the boat to ourselves. After seeing the boys' abilities on the first dive, Caleb didn't hesitate to challenge them on the second dive. The crew was flexible and adapted to circumstances. Caleb could spot the coolest things at the dive sites. Great choice for a dive company in the heart of Honolulu. Parking was easy in the morning, with the lot right next to the marina.

Two perfect days of diving - We did our wreck diving certification with Hawaiian Diving Adventures and enjoyed the experience so much we booked a second day of diving. The whole team is great, very experienced and knowledgeable, and their knowledge of the dive sites is excellent. The boat and the scuba equipment were in very good condition. I would highly recommend diving with them!

Would do again! - I completed a total of 6 dives. The crew has been amazing, very attentive and lots of fun to be around. Had a great time and can recommend, especially the wreck dives are fantastic. I will do this dive again because it was so much fun. COVID-19 precautions were taken.

Highlight of my work trip - I haven't dove in 10 years and while I was here for work, I decided to go diving. We dove a shipwreck and then the pipeline / reef. I had an amazing day and got to see so many different things like sharks, stingrays, eels, and huge turtles. The instructor took such good care of me since I was a little nervous cause its been so long. Would definitely recommend them for anyone who wants to go diving.
